I'm writing an application that will be ingesting multiple live streams at
once and managing them, and to do this I've been adapting libav with a
custom AVIOContext. The custom context is simply reading from an FLV file
for testing purposes before I will feed it an RTMP stream. All of this is
tested + proven.
Everything works fine when only one stream is being ingested, and I'm quite
sure I'm going by documentation on this, however when I have multiple
streams running at once libav runs into problems reading in packets.
There is a lot of code to review for this issue I'm having, so I won't
bother attaching it all -- but I do have one question concerning the
behavior of libav:
1. Is it possible to read/decode more than one media stream in one
single thread? i.e. round-robin each AVFormatContext, calling av_read_frame
once, decoding, and moving onto the next packet/frame in this fashion?
2. Or, is it possible to achieve the same thing, with each stream being
on its own thread (constructing the AVFormatContext, reading input,
decoding)?
In essence, I am looking to decode multiple streams in one process. Hope
this is possible, if it is there is likely something wrong with my code
Thanks
